PPWE工作計畫（原文）
Proposed Workplan for 2011
Fora: POLICY PARTNERSHIP FOR WOMEN AND ECONOMY（PPWE）

The Policy Partnership for Women and Economy (PPWE) provides a mechanism to integrate gender considerations into APEC activities and to assist APEC officials to implement the Framework for the Integration of Women and Gender in APEC.

As APEC host in 2011, the United States will prioritize moving forward on concrete initiatives that build a “seamless regional economy” by achieving outcomes in specific priority areas: (1) strengthening regional economic integration and expanding trade; (2) promoting green growth; and (3) expanding regulatory cooperation and advancing regulatory convergence. Given that gender is a cross-cutting issue among APEC fora, PPWE will work in these pillars, aiming to expand trade and investment in the Asia Pacific region by enhancing women’s economic opportunity.

1. Proposed Work Plan for 2011 in Response to Leaders/Ministers/SOM Priorities and Decisions, and to ABAC Recommendations.

• Improve and streamline the PPWE’s involvement in the APEC process by more closely coordinating and integrating its work with the SME Working Group (SMEWG), Committee on Trade and Investment (CTI), and other APEC entities to assist them in identifying and addressing issues related to the economic engagement of women in the APEC region.  Consider institutional changes to support that integration.
• Provide expert advice on gender to Economies, Fora and the Secretariat through project evaluation and policy input throughout 2011. 
• Assist in the development of project proposals across all Fora. 
• Continue to develop the mechanism to collect, share and monitor good practices that advance the consideration of gender issues across APEC. 
• Use working –level official PPWE meetings to prepare for and support the development of a Women and the Economy Summit in September in the United States. 
• Take into account the 2010 Economic Leaders’ Declaration which commits to focus on enhancing women’s access to training, financing, technology, and infrastructure to maximize their economic opportunities.
• Also take into account the 2010 Ministerial Statement which mentioned facilitating women’s access to capacity building programmes, technology and infrastructure; and supporting measures to promote employment for women in informal and vulnerable sectors, access to financing, growth in women-led SMEs and support for social enterprises for women. 
• Discuss how to contribute to the APEC Growth Strategy and come up with concrete project proposals.

2. Anticipated Activities and/or Proposed Work Plan with outside organizations in response to Minister’s call for greater engagement with:

　　A) Business Sector; and
　　B) Other Organizations/Stakeholders, including the International Financial Institutions (IFIs) and other International Organizations (IOs)

• Continue to develop a close working relationship with and support the private sector, including the Women Leaders’ Network which includes women leaders from the business sector, academia, civil society and government from the APEC community. 
• Strengthen and identify links with relevant IFIs and other IOs such as the Commission on the Status of Women, UN Women, UN Development Programme (UNDP), UN Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD), United Nations International Trade Center, the World Bank, Asian Development Bank, and the Inter-American Development Bank etc, to support the integration of gender considerations in APEC.

3. Identify cross-cutting issues and explain how they will be coordinated across Fora.

• Continue the efforts to advance the implementation of the Framework for the Integration of Women in APEC based on the principle that gender is a cross-cutting issue in APEC. 
• Work with the APEC Secretariat in providing guidance to Fora on the inclusion of gender considerations in Project Proposals and Evaluations and/or collaborate with Fora or WLN to propose activities or projects accordingly.
• Continue the process of streamlining the reporting process for Economies and Fora on the implementation of the Framework for the Integration of Women in APEC that will help PPWE and other working groups to make more relevant and comparative conclusions 
• Continue and strengthen collaborative work undertaken with the SMEWG and the CTI to improve the business environment faced by women-led small, medium and micro-enterprises in the region, to assist in fulfilling APEC’s private sector development agenda.

4. Expected Outcomes/Deliverables For 2011

To facilitate the development of the following expected outcomes/deliverables, the PPWE and other related working groups will be invited to meet on September 13 in San Francisco, CA.

• Announce significant policy statements and outcomes, with follow-up mechanisms, at the Women and the Economy Summit in September 2011.
• Ensure close and active follow-up on the outcomes of the Women's Entrepreneurship Summit of October 2010.
• Analyze and disseminate reports from Fora and Economies on their yearly activities to implement the Framework for the Integration of Women in APEC. 
• Implement the recommendations of the SCE Fora Review relevant to the PPWE. 
• Collect the number and percentage of female board members of (listed) companies, female SME owners, and female ABAC members within the APEC region as Key Performance Indicators of Progress, as recommended by the WLN in Japan 2010.
• Increase engagement with other Fora to encourage their engagement in implementing the Framework for the Integration of Women in APEC.
• Promote and improve governments’ awareness to support gender initiatives to assist trade liberalization, Small and Medium Enterprises (SME) and Micro-Enterprise (ME) development. 
• Support the planning of 2012 meetings in the Russian Federation.
